There is a newer version of this series
[PATCH v9 04/13] rust: hrtimer: allow timer restart from timer handler
Posted by Andreas Hindborg 11 months, 2 weeks ago
This patch allows timer handlers to report that they want a timer to be
restarted after the timer handler has finished executing.

Also update the `hrtimer` documentation to showcase the new feature.

Should we have #[derive(Copy, Clone, PartialEq, Eq)] here?

Also, I feel like I might have asked this a few versions ago so hopefully i'm
not asking again: but what's the reason for us not just using the
discriminants of `HrTimerRestart` here:

/// Restart policy for timers.
#[repr(u32)]
pub enum HrTimerRestart {
    /// Timer should not be restarted.
    NoRestart = bindings::hrtimer_restart_HRTIMER_NORESTART,
    /// Timer should be restarted.
    Restart = bindings::hrtimer_restart_HRTIMER_RESTART,
}

Yea, lets do that. `Debug` as well?

I forget if we discussed this, but it does not make much of a
difference, does it?

With a Rust enum, we get a smaller storage type maybe with better
support for niche optimizations? And then pay a bit more for conversion.
All in all, I don't think it makes much difference.

No idea about performance wise, but I -think- it would actually cut down on
the code that you need - particularly for the larger enums here. Mainly
because you only would need to manually specify each variant for converting
from bindings::hrtimer_restart to HrTimerRestart, but not the other way
around:

   /// Restart policy for timers.
   #[repr(u32)]
   pub enum HrTimerRestart {
       /// Timer should not be restarted.
       NoRestart = bindings::hrtimer_restart_HRTIMER_NORESTART,
       /// Timer should be restarted.
       Restart = bindings::hrtimer_restart_HRTIMER_RESTART,
   }
   
   impl From<bindings::hrtimer_restart> for HrTimerRestart {
       fn from(value: u32) -> Self {
           match value {
               bindings::hrtimer_restart_HRTIMER_NORESTART => Self::NoRestart,
               _ => Self::Restart,
           }
       }
   }
   
   impl From<HrTimerRestart> for bindings::hrtimer_restart {
       fn from(value: HrTimerRestart) -> Self {
           value as Self
       }
   }

I was implementing this, and it is fine for `HrTimerRestart`, but for
`HrTimerMode` it does not work out. We have multiple flags with the same
value:

  error[E0081]: discriminant value `2` assigned more than once
    --> /home/aeh/src/linux-rust/hrtimer/rust/kernel/time/hrtimer.rs:689:1
      |
  689 | pub enum HrTimerMode {
      | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  ...
  695 |     Pinned = bindings::hrtimer_mode_HRTIMER_MODE_PINNED,
      |              ------------------------------------------ `2` assigned here
  ...
  702 |     AbsolutePinned = bindings::hrtimer_mode_HRTIMER_MODE_ABS_PINNED,
      |                      ---------------------------------------------- `2` assigned here


Which is unfortunate. I'll keep the old style for this one and convert
the others where applicable.

Interesting - I'm curious if maybe this is something that needs cleaning up on
the C side, just a side thought though.
